AHEPA news

AMERICAN HELLENIC EDUCATIONAL  PROGRESSIVE ASSOCIATION

Tuesday, November 20, 2018     From the Desk of the Supreme President  Dear AHEPA Family & Friends,   At this time of year, we are reminded that we have plenty for which to be thankful. We are especially grateful to our volunteer members who give unselfishly of their time and resources in service to the community as exemplified most recently during July's deadly wildfires in Greece. In recent years our members have: assisted the victims of the Flint Water Crisis, reached a milestone in raising funds for cancer research and continue to demonstrate an enduring commitment to Thalassemia (Cooley's Anemia) research, helped to feed the hungry and provide public health assistance in Greece, honored our veterans and those who made the ultimate sacrifice, raised awareness about the consequences of PTSD and sponsored service dogs to help wounded warriors, helped neighbors to recover from natural disasters, awarded millions of dollars in scholarships, and provided dignified affordable housing for low-income and disabled elderly persons.   The commitment and dedication of our members is unwavering. We are also thankful for our generous donors and sponsors who have helped us to meet our mission by supporting our many programs and events. As a reminder, this #GivingTuesday, please take a moment to make the AHEPA Charitable Foundation, from which our charitable giving programs are administered, a priority. On behalf of the AHEPA family, I wish you and yours a very Happy Thanksgiving!  Fraternally,   George E. Loucas Supreme President
